S-Video - Good quality  
8.2 Select your connection quality  
An analog connection, S-Video provides better picture quality than  
composite video. When connecting your device with S-Video, plug the  
S-Video cable to the S-Video connector on the side of the TV. You must  
connect a separate Audio L/R cable from the device to the red and  
white Audio L/R in/out connectors on the side of the TV.  
This section describes how you can enhance your audio visual  
experience by connecting your devices with the best possible  
connectors.  
HDMI - Highest quality  
S-Video cable  
Audio L/R cable  
- Red,White  
HDMI produces the best audio visual quality possible. Both audio  
and video signals are combined in one HDMI cable, providing an  
uncompressed, digital interface between your TV and HDMI devices.  
You must use HDMI to experience full high definition video. You must  
also use HDMI cables to use Philips EasyLink as described in Use Philips  
EasyLink on page 25.  
Composite - Basic quality  
Composite video provides basic analog connectivity, usually combining  
a (yellow) video cinch cable with (red and white) Audio L/R cinch cable.  
Match the cable colors when connecting to the composite video and  
audio L/R input connectors on the side of the TV.  
Use only a certified HDMI cable.  
E Tip  
If your device only has a DVI connector, use a DVI-HDMI adaptor to  
connect your device to a HDMI connector on theTV. As such a con-  
nection does not support sound, you must connect a separate audio  
cable from the device to the Audio L/R input connectors on theTV.  
D Note  
Philips HDMI supports High-bandwidth Digital Contents Protection  
(HDCP). HDCP is a form of Digital Rights Management that  
protects high definition content in DVD or Blu-ray discs.  
Composite audio/video cable  
-Yellow, red and white  
Component (YPbPr) - High quality  
Component (Y Pb Pr) video provides better picture quality than  
S-Video or composite video connections. Though component video  
supports high definition signals, picture quality is lower than HDMI and  
is analog.  
8.3 Label your connections  
When you connect devices, you can label the connections to help you  
to later identify where devices are connected.  
1. Press MENU on the remote control and select Installation >  
When connecting a component video cable, match the cable colors to  
the connectors on the back of the TV. Also, connect an Audio L/R cable  
to the red and white Audio L/R input connectors.

9. Glossary  
Term  
DVI  
Meaning  
DigitalVisual Interface  
A digital interface standard created by the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG)  
to convert analog signals into digital signals to accommodate both analog and digital  
monitors.  
RGB signals  
Red, Green and Blue signals  
Super-VHS signals  
These are the three video signals, red, green & blue, which make up the picture. Using  
these signals improves picture quality.  
S-VHS signals  
These are 2 separateY/C video signals from the S-VHS and Hi-8 recording standards.  
The luminance signalsY (black and white) and chrominance signals C (color) are  
recorded separately on the tape. This provides better picture quality than with standard  
video (VHS and 8 mm) where theY/C signals are combined to provide only one video  
signal.  
16:9  
TV format  
Refers to the ratio between the length and height of the screen. Wide screen televisions  
have a ratio of 16 by 9, conventional screen TV sets have a ratio of 4 by 3.  
HDMI  
High definition Multimedia  
Interface  
Provides an uncompressed, all digital audio/video interface between the TV and any  
HDMI-equipped audio/video component, such as set-top box, DVD player and A/V  
receiver. HDMI supports enhanced or high definition video plus two-channel digital  
audio.  
System  
HDCP  
Television pictures are not broadcast in the same way in all countries. There are  
different standards: BG, DK, I, and LL’. The System setting is used to select these  
different standards. This is not to be confused with PAL or SECAM color coding. PAL  
is used in most countries in Europe, Secam in France, Russia and most African countries.  
The United States and Japan use a different system called NTSC. The inputs AV1 and  
AV2 are used to read NTSC coded recordings.  
High-bandwidth Digital Content A specification developed by Intel for protecting digital entertainment that uses the DVI  
Protection  
interface. HDCP encrypts content the transmission of digital content between the video  
source or transmitter such as a computer, DVD player or set-top box and the digital  
display or receiver such as a monitor, television or projector.

Philips EasyLink

Digital Camera Issues  
If a USB connection between your digital camera and the TV isn’t  
working, you can try the solutions below to resolve your problem.  
Make sure your digital camera is switched on and verify if the  
configuration of your digital camera is correct (see the manual of  
your digital camera for more information).  
Some digital cameras allow you to switch off the USB interface.  
Make sure that the USB interface is switched on before connecting  
to the TV.  
If you have a digital camera with only internal memory (no  
removable memory) you can try to copy the content manually to  
a USB memory device (e.g. Philips KEY product) using a personal  
computer.  
Some digital cameras allow you to switch between PTP (Picture  
Transfer Protocol) or “PC Link” and USB Mass Storage or “PC  
Drive”. Make sure that you select USB Mass Storage or “PC  
Drive” on your digital camera.  
If your camera supports different interface settings be sure to try  
them one by one or contact the reseller of your camera to find  
out the correct setting.  
USB Memory Device Issues  
Devices connected to the USB port of your TV must be “Mass  
Storage Class” compliant. If your device (digital camera. MP3  
player, portable hard disk, …) is not “Mass Storage Class” compliant  
it will not be detected by the content browser of the TV.
